ERPNext HR & Payroll
What is Payroll Entry?
- Payroll Entry
- A Payroll Entry in ERPNext processes payroll for a group of employees for a defined payroll period, bulk-creating salary slips and the payroll journal entry.
Running Payroll
Go to Payroll → Payroll Entry → New. Select the payroll frequency (Monthly), date range, department, and branch filters. Click "Create Salary Slips" — ERPNext generates a slip for every matching active employee. Review, then click "Submit Salary Slips" and "Make Bank Entry".
Bank Payment File
After submitting, click "Make Bank Entry" to create a Journal Entry debiting salary expense accounts and crediting the bank. ERPNext can export a bank payment file (NEFT/RTGS format) listing all employee net pay amounts for direct upload to your bank portal.
